Youjia Inn

The temperature is too cold to stretch out your hands, and taking a breath of air is like taking a mouthful of half-melted ice slag.The lead cloud has been hoarded for a long time, layer by layer, dimming the sky.

"Come, come, don't be in a hurry. You have to eat first. You haven't eaten for a few days. When will you be able to master it? The sword might be able to work. If you look at it like that, you won't be able to move it, right?"

The boring old man stared blankly at the sword in the forging room, and Xiao Wudao was fascinated.

Xiao Wu stayed with the old man for half a year, and found that the old man was not boring at all, especially for people he knew well, he was just an amiable little old man, without the strange temper of a superior person at all.

As for why he got the nickname of a boring old man, it wasn't because once the old man mastered the sword, he would become a Buddha in trance, without saying a word and with a slovenly appearance.

In the past half a year, Xiao Wu not only got the essence of the old man's sword casting, but also solidified the basic skills that he hadn't learned before, and also learned a lot about the "boring" spirit of the old man about forging swords. The difference is that Xiao Wu's appearance still needs to be trimmed, is she a girl after all, um, just a little bit more informal than usual, um, just a little bit.

"Hey, this girl, I can't shout anymore."

"Merky girl! Look who's here!" the old man raised his voice and greeted.

There is only one sword in Xiao Wu's eyes, a dull and ordinary sword.The flames danced and imprinted on Xiao Wu's face, turning red a small face with a thin chin that could pierce someone, imprinted in Xiao Wu's eyes, as if falling into a bottomless abyss.

"Stinky boy, go and see this crazy girl, she's stuck in sword practice, and she can't figure it out for a while, change the environment, change the mood, maybe you can get through it, go and call her out."

"Haha, this girl." Lin Yuan's hearty laughter came, "I'll go and have a look."

"Dong dong!" Lin Yuan knocked on the door twice, but there was no movement in the room.

"Xiao Wu, have you become obsessed with practicing kung fu?" Lin Yuan took two steps closer.

Xiao Wu's back was facing Lin Yuan, and his spine was straight.

"Hello." Lin Yuan patted Xiao Wu on the shoulder.

"Ah!" Xiao Wu covered his mouth and exclaimed in a low voice, "I'm scared to death!"

"Are you okay?" Lin Yuan asked with concern.

"No, it's okay." Xiao Wu patted his chest, stood up, his legs gave way, and fell back again.

Lin Yuan quickly stopped Xiao Wu in his arms, his eyes full of distress.

Hey, this girl, she still had a little meat, but now she has a handful of bones left, so she has to learn something, but she just learned the madness of the boring old man. I haven't seen her for a month, so why did she become such a ghost? It looks like.

"Also said, it's okay, look at you, how weak you are, you just say that you haven't eaten for a few days, I brought you delicious food, go out and make up for it."

Xiao Wu was a little shy and in a daze, and nodded erratically, "Brother Lin, you are back, I miss you so much, I am so happy to see you back. Originally, I wanted to say that I will be able to wait until you come back." I saw the sword. In the end, um, it’s just a half-finished product, I’ll wait for me for a few more days, and it will be ready.”

"Hey, why do you still care about the sword!" Lin Yuan was half distressed and half happy. He shook his head, shook off the big cloak hanging on the hook by the door, wrapped Xiao Wu in it, and a princess hugged him. , pack it up and take it out the door.

Without the strong and fierce fire in the forging room, the cold wind outside the house was blowing.

The fine sweat on Xiao Wu's body shrank back, and his whole body suddenly became clearer.

Omg what did I say?Throw me to death!Xiao Wu complained, shook his head, and buried his head into Lin Yuan's neck.

Seemingly feeling the trembling of the villain in his arms, Lin Yuan closed his arms again.

The two stuck tighter.

QAQ, why did I treat Big Brother Lin like a wall and hit him straight up?I want to die!It seems that the brain is still not clear.

Xiao Wu let Lin Yuan hold the broken jar, and it seemed that there was a branding iron on his body to burn it again.

"Yo Yo Yo, don't you just pass through the yard, the girl still needs to be hugged." The boring old man said cheerfully.

A pot of rice wine was warmed on the red clay stove, and a soup and a few delicate side dishes were placed on the table.

Lin Yuan put Xiao Wu on the chair, adjusted his hat, and revealed a face like a little tabby cat.

"Men old man, just tell me, I recited you out of the forging room several times."

"Ah, that's not it, isn't that I'm getting old?" The boring old man laughed.

Lin Yuan took the towel, soaked it in hot water, and wrung it dry.

"Hey, Brother Lin, I'll come, I'll do it."

"Hey, why are you being polite, you are half a sick patient now." Lin Yuan gently wiped off the black dust on Xiao Wu's face, "Just say, why don't you imitate this boring old man, girls must know how to take care of them myself."

"Isn't there you?" The boring old man filled a bowl of soup, "Girl, drink some hot food first. This is Mingyue Tower's stewed chicken with mushrooms. It's delicious."

Lin Yuan picked up the spoon and wanted to feed it.

"Hey, don't, don't, I'm not really sick."

The boring old man lowered his head and took a sip of his wine: "Young man, just pretend I don't exist."

"Master Boring, what are you talking about?" Xiao Wu scolded, moved his head far away to resist death, and refused to take a sip.

Lin Yuan had no choice but to give up, handed the spoon to Xiao Wu, and sat down by himself.

Take a spoonful of hot water, and Xiao Wu's eyes lit up. After several spoonfuls, he drank the hot water completely.

"Don't worry, don't rush and drink slowly." Lin Yuan filled another bowl for Xiao Wu, "Don't bother with the soup, these dishes are all from Mingyuelou, and they should all suit your taste. "

"Yeah." Xiao Wu responded, taking a piece of pork ribs from Lin Yuan.

"Hey, how come I, an old man, don't get treated like this."

"Didn't you say you don't exist?" Lin Yuan also added a spare rib and put it in the old man's bowl.

"Oh, it's better to be a brat, yes, yes, I don't exist." The boring old man was very happy when he saw the two people, and his face was wrinkled with a smile.

After eating half full at the speed of wind and clouds, Xiao Wu felt that his feet had landed on the ground and returned to the world from the clouds.

"Brother Lin, why did you go so long this time?" Xiao Wu touched his chubby belly.

Although Brother Lin usually disappears, he still comes to see me and old man Men every once in a while.

"Take care of some things." Lin Yuan replied, "I probably won't be leaving for so long in the future."

"Handling things? This is not in line with your style of handling things. Isn't it usually a month?" The boring old man frowned, "Are you in trouble?"

"No." Lin Yuan shook his head, "I mean solve it completely."

"Okay, okay, my brat is finally settling down." The boring old man took a sip of his wine in relief, and looked at Xiao Wu meaningfully, making Xiao Wu lower his head.

"Young girl is also a good girl, brat, hurry up."

"En." Lin Yuan responded.

My god, this is a confession, is it a confession?

Is it a confession?Xiao Wu took a mouthful of vegetables in a panic, but couldn't taste the food, and his ears were red and dripping blood.

"Huh? It's snowing." The boring old man sighed, "No wonder it's been so cold these days."

Fine pieces of snow fell outside the window, and silver powder danced in the air. If you listen carefully, there is still a rustling sound from the roof.

"Jiangnan, it's rare to have a snowfall. This is the first snow of this year. It's still a little small, and it's just snow. Maybe it's going to be a goose feather in a while." The boring old man took a bite of his vegetables.

"Well, this is the first snow this year." Looking out of the window, Xiao Wu said with emotion, picked up the wine glass and poured himself a glass of wine, "The end of the year is approaching, maybe this year we will celebrate the New Year with everyone, and said You are not allowed to be here in the coming year, so I would like to offer you a toast, do you mind?"

"Haha, I don't mind if you live with me, but some people might mind."

"Cheers, cheers." Xiao Wu ignored the boring old man's words.

The three wine glasses touched lightly, making a crisp sound, and all three of them had smiles on their faces.

Outside the window, the sky is getting late, the snow is flying, everything is withered, and it is lonely and empty.Inside the hut, the oil lamps are bright, the red clay stove, the food is fragrant and warm.The three of them chatted about homework, drank fine wine, and stole some leisure time.

"Want to go out and have a look?" Lin Yuan asked.

"Huh?" Xiao Wu was a little dazed.

"Go, go, the scenery of the first snow is so beautiful." The old man urged.

"Huh? It's so cold."

"Oh, my stupid apprentice, why are you so stupid?"

The boring old man gave Xiao Wu a head-bump unceremoniously, "Go, go out with your Brother Lin quickly? Could it be possible to let me, an old man, go out? Is it reasonable?"

"Ah? Oh." Xiao Wu suddenly realized, and was so ashamed that he had nowhere to go.

Lin Yuan looked at Xiao Wu who was wrapped into a ball, and said with satisfaction: "Okay, let's go."

The door opened, and the two of them walked forward step by step along the path in front of the door, like in a snowstorm.

"Is it cold?" Lin Yuan asked.

"It's not cold, it's almost wrapped into a ball." Xiao Wu beside him shook his head and said.

"En." Lin Yuan said with satisfaction, "Stretch out your hand."

"Oh." Xiao Wu stretched out his hand obediently.

"Bada." Something cool clasped her wrist, Xiao Wu raised her hand, and put a shiny silver bracelet with lotus pattern on her wrist.

"Wow, it's so pretty." Xiao Wu said.

"My mother left it to me, do you accept it or not?" Lin Yuan pretended to be relaxed and smiled, but his eyes were fixed on Xiao Wu's face, for fear that something would come out of this stupid girl's mouth that would make people spurt blood s answer.

"Ah? It's so precious, where can I get it!"

Xiao Wu looked confused, and hurriedly took off the bracelet, "I can't take it off, I'll go to the house and apply some oil."

The veins on Lin Yuan's forehead twitched, "If you can't take it off, don't take it off."

"How can that work?" Xiao Wu argued.

"Hey, I lost to you." Lin Yuan sighed and raised his forehead, "I gave you a token of love, do you want it or not?"

"I want it, I want it, why don't you want it? You don't want to take it back if you give it to me." Xiao Wu smiled brightly, and raised his hand to show off, turning the bracelet around.

Lin Yuan suddenly came back to his senses, and rubbed Xiao Wu's hair helplessly, "Look at your little arms, they are too thin, how have you spent the past two months, please make up for them in the future, You are such an adult, you have to take good care of yourself.”

"Yeah, Brother Lin will be here in the future. With Brother Lin taking care of me, I will definitely eat fat."

"You-"
